  • Capture: From Deco to Eco, in reply to JacksonP,

    Rob Gillies Bio that says the house was in Mt Albert too, and it would be a bit of a stretch to call Three Kings Mt Albert, even for a real estate agent. :-)

    He has an old art deco house too and his neighbour who is another Production person does also. They are art deco fans. Maybe because your friends beautiful house is on the corner of Mt Albert Rd, the stretch to call it in Mt Albert could work... :)
    Also, Im wondering (not having seen Ruby & Rata) if he used his own house or his neighbours. They are both lovely houses too and rather close to your friends.

    Might have to make this a thing, but then I don’t have many friends with such magnificent houses for sale. :-)

    The subject of this capture is in the Street across form us and I have watched it transform.Nice to see what they did to the inside.There are some lovely Art Deco houses on this side of town.
    This is one house I regret my cousin selling. Milbank Mansion in LA. She restored it where it was needed but much of it was retained in original splendour. My camera broke last time I stayed there so the images I got are too fuzzy.

  • Hard News: Narcissists and bullies, in reply to Lucy Telfar Barnard,

    However, that doesn’t change my earlier objection to the offenders in this case attempting to have the media present them as the victims. They may be victims in some way or another, but not in the ways those news stories spin it.

    Earlier I called them sick. They are. They need serious education as to why what they do is sick. Seriously sad that Parents are nowhere to be heard ,all but one couple washing their hands of their off spring. Seriously sad that kids can get through school and not know what is right or wrong with their behaviour. One girl stated the kid Parker told another it was rape and it saved her then. I can only conclude early on they knew or learnt it was rape. They need to take responsibility .Perhaps Parker did that or was taken to the police station because he realised or was told by his parents. Reality is, that footage. Which indicates they were well aware. There is nothing else to say otherwise.

    if it wasn’t so damn serious.

    This however is important and serious and as I would say to anyone, If Marshall calls, talk to him. Tell him how you feel . If you don't want to, tell him to call me. Seriously. I believe in educating those who are ignorant and I firmly believe even Marshall could learn from a lesson or two. I'll give him first hand experience of what it's like to be raped and first hand knowledge of why I wouldn't bother with him or his staff.
    Kracklite. don't be intimidated . I'll be your support person. If Marshall chose to ring you, I'd suggest you have constructive views that he may find helpful. Don't underestimate yourself.

    Rape is not merely forceful penetration, but permanent humiliation. In letting the Roastbusters Facebook page remain active (and it’s up again), the rape culture of the police continues the rapes.

    I refuse to be humiliated. I believe I have my parents to thank for giving me the life skills to know what is right and what is wrong and a voice to express that. I have continued to be disappointed with the NZ Police Force from actual experiences with them. They display questionable behaviour when it suits themselves.They are happy to tell outright lies to suit their needs. Always have. Hell, The NSW Police were an eye opener to me when I lived there and in the days of Joe Bjelke Petersen, Brisbane Cops had some dubious ways that friends of mine have experienced. At least everyone knew their behaviour was suspect. Here in NZ, peeps seem shocked when we get a glimpse of how the Force can be. This morning, they are still defending their behaviour, twisting words to sound as if they were concerned yet not once have they said sorry. Being raped is just one thing that I don't expect any help from the Police. They plainly don't like my looks. I've had it all my life so far. They don't surprise me any more. Sad but true.

    but rather a culture that facilitates what has happened, and I think that any talk about bad apples is a distraction.

    Whilst I know that our culture is what enables this ,I have to say that, I certainly have received my serving of sadness today from Wendyl Nissen at The Herald .Does a Mother have no words for her daughter ? Geez. :(
